If you have Chrome installed, does Chrome result in the same thing?
josh_bodner No, it seems specific to Edge. I've seen users open Edge and lose the stream immediately, then it will come back on closing it. The same does not happen in Chrome.

Here's a user video that demonstrates the behavior. It appears around the 13:30 mark where the game capture just stops. The user demonstrates closing the Edge browser will resolve the capture issue, and when reopening Edge the problem returns. They then close it again and capture works. Finally opening Chrome to demonstrate no problems and that it's Edge specific.
